Re: Anyone interested in getting to know / work on the PyUNO and OpenOffice.org Basic scripting?

Hi Indrada,
I have been planning to use the OOo-s wonderful document conversion
features to produce Lucene friendly (html/text) documents from a
_huge_ dumps Microsoft office documents. It might not be exactly what
you have in mind, but sounds to me as a great opportunity be great to
pick up tips/tricks/gotchas on - "automating, scripting, writing".
Are you planing any on line sessions or any barcamp-ish meet up? (I'm
hoping there'd be a good response from the other lists as well) Keep
us posted on this ...
